An unusual Pabst Blue Ribbon double-sided porcelain neon sign with unique glass face inserts chalked up $44,280; a rare, high-grade single-sided tin sign for Ace High Motor Oil with car and airplane graphic garnered $41,820; and a Canadian twin 10-gallon double-visible gas pump rang up $34,440 at Morphys Automobilia & Petroliana auction held Feb. 17, 18, and 19. The three-day event was packed with nearly 1,500 lots of motoring-related signage and service station items, antique advertising, bottles and flasks, all meant to appeal to discerning collectors. It was held live at Morphys Pennsylvania gallery, with all forms of remote bidding available, including live via the internet thru Morphy Live. The Pabst Blue Ribbon double-sided porcelain neon sign was the overall top lot of the three days, breezing past its $10,000 high estimate. Mounted to its original can, the sign was a fine, rust-free example that would enhance any breweriana collection. It was large, measuring 58 inches by 11 inches by 38 inches, and was graded 8.9+ on both sides. The rare and high-grade single-sided tin sign for Ace High Motor Oil, with a car-and-airplane graphic, measured 7.75 inches by 13.25 inches. It was certified and graded by AGS, the premier authentication and grading service for antique advertising. It boasted great color and gloss throughout the field and was one of the highest-grade examples of this type of sign that Morphy has ever sold. The Canadian twin 10-gallon double visible gas pump, standing 100 inches tall, had undergone an older restoration in red, white and gold livery. The pump showed two intact glass cylinders, with the upper one in very good to excellent condition. It was a candidate for a good cleaning or even a new restoration. Two petroliana lots posted identical selling prices of $19,680. One was a Flying A Gasoline single-sided embossed porcelain sign, showing excellent color and gloss throughout the field and a clean Flying A graphic. The bright and glossy example, measuring 62 inches by 48 inches, graded at 8.5 for condition. The other was a brilliant example of a Tioga Gasoline single 13.5-inch diameter globe lens with a Native American graphic. The globe lens, boasting excellent color and gloss throughout, scored a near-perfect 9.0 for condition. It exhibited negligible wear in the field. A rare, ca. 1920s single-sided curved porcelain Campbells Tomato Soup can sign, graded 8.5+, exhibited exceptional color and gloss. It ended up finishing at $14,760. The iconic Campbells Tomato Soup can went from grocery store staple to pop art superstardom thanks to Andy Warhol. To learn more, visit www.morphyauctions.com. All images courtesy of Morphy Auctions.
